Pub · Norwich
A short hop from Norwich in Trowse, this is a pub that takes Sunday seriously — the three-meat roast comes up again and again, big enough to defeat most people, with sausage stuffing, roast potatoes, braised red cabbage and a fluffy Yorkshire. The sticky toffee pudding tastes freshly made. Rather than one echoing room it's split into several nooks, with two log burners, so a fidgety toddler isn't on display to the whole place; high chairs and a kids' menu are there, and there's outdoor seating for warmer days. Staff are generally warm and quick with a smile. Two snags worth knowing: the car park only holds around eight to ten cars, though there's decent road parking nearby, and one family advises booking "at least a week in advance" for a roast. Dogs welcome too — there's a resident house cat.
